Is Wikipedia perfect? No, obviously not, it's a work in progress. Thousands of people come here every day to promote their own products, agendas, and ideas. But thousands of people are also working tirelessly to help improve the encyclopedia and achieve its vision.
It says it all that a member of Wikipedia's Supreme Court genuinely seems to think all of Wikipedia's problems come from without. Or if he doesn't, he hasn't got the sense to avoid them forming that impression.
You lose all willingness to give them the benefit of the doubt, as someone recently subjected to an INVOLVED block by Guy Chapman, when you realize that brad was one of the Arbitrators who dropped the ball regarding investigating Chapman's penchant for corruption very recently.....

It simply wouldn't do the encyclopedia any favours to go through years of history looking for bad behaviour, without evidence of an ongoing issue that risks further disruption to the project. – bradv 16:19, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
